A Journey Toward Thankfulness (Day 18)

Please pardon the interruption in my posts … I have scribbled my “thankful” notes each day by hand but due to a business trip, quickly followed by a trip home for the Thanksgiving holidays, I am a little behind on writing the posts.

Today marks three years since I closed on my house – my first home! Happy birthday to my house! I am so thankful for the opportunity to be a homeowner, complete with the occasional angst and constant associated costs. It’s wonderful to come home after work to my own space, to know that if I feel like painting a room, I can do it. I remember the first day I realized that I could vacuum at midnight if I wanted to – or turn up the music as loudly as I wanted while I cleaned. It’s amazing how I’ve managed to fill the space of the home with things that I hold dear.
